Southwest Seattle Orthopedics: Jonathan Kurland, MD
Dr. Clark is an orthopedic surgeon. When I broke my ankle he cared for me. For one thing, he DOES NOT have a good bedside manner. He was rough and very uncaring. I thought he broke it again he was so rough! Another time, I needed to see him and the wait time to get in was a month! After waiting this long, I get to my appointment only to be told I could not be seen due to an insurance glitch. No one bothered to call me until I was already in the office. That was just a waste of time, and rude too! If you want to go here for convenience (at the hospital) or whatever reason, see the other doctor (Dr. Baronian) who is excellent and comes highly recommended.
BURIEN FAMILY & COSMETIC DENTISTRY
The office staff is nice enough, and there wasnt a wait at all. However, that is where the positive ends. I was told by this doctor that I needed a root canal and maybe a crown (big money). I was also told on top of my insurance that it would cost me an arm and a leg (oh but they were more than eager to work out payments with me ha!). I didnt think the tooth was that bad. I was right! When I got a second opinion, the other dentist confirmed that it was no where near in need of a root canal or a crown, and that it was just in need of a simple filling. On top of trying to rip me off, they also ripped off my insurance company! When my insurance company sent me the dentists bill they had all kinds of things billed to them which I did not receive (such as anesthetic for a cleaning!?). Stay away!
Bright Now! Dental
Bright Now Dental is a great dental office. They are very efficient, always getting people in and out with no long wait times. They also have reasonable prices. In fact, while our dental insurance had a much higher out of pocket deductible, BND only charged us $25 (for the year!) as they work with many union insurance companies to keep out of pocket expenses really low. The dental care was excellent and they were very knowledgeable. I recommend them.
West Valley Dental
Dr. Nyugen is a great dentist with a great bedside (erchair side) manner. He always explains what he is going to do before he does it to ensure I know whats going on. He also always makes sure Im well numb before his procedures are started. He is very good about after care/treatment , including pain management. His prices are reasonable and they will bill your insurance if needed.
King's Transmission
These guys gave me an awesome deal on a transmission for my van. They got it in installed promptly and the van was out the next day and ready to go. The salesmen are friendly as are the mechanics. Their prices are excellent! They wont rip you off for sure, their work is high quality, and they wont give you the run around on when your car will be done. I recommend them highly!
Phelps Tire Retread Plant
This place is certainly not the cleanest. It is run down and dirty, but I can overlook that for the quality tires and service I receive. They sell only good quality tires and the variety of their stock is huge. They carry anything from the smallest of tires on up to semi and tractor size! The sales men are nice and very helpful, as are the people in the service dept. Their prices are reasonable and warranties are included!
VCA Five Corners Animal Hospital
The veterinary staff are all very nice and quite helpful. They do all they can to get your pets well, or to prevent any problems from occurring. They always take the time to explain what is going on and what is being done about it. They are also equally as good with people as they are with the animals. The prices are in the median range. The place is very clean and sanitized; its a nice atmosphere. The only setback is that the wait time is a little long sometimes. Other than that, this is a good vet.
Ketchikan Drywall Svc Inc
These guys do an awesome job! They are a very efficient and fast company. Dont worry, their quickness does not mean poor quality at all! They got the drywall up, taped, and textured in a timely fashion, and as promised. They cleaned up really well when they were done. I didnt have to deal with any of it. They got in and got out with no run around on prices, time frames, or anything. They had very competitive rates but with better service!
Sue A. Horton, PT
I had to attend Star Therapy after elbow surgery. They have a very nice and clean facility, with the latest in equipment. They always ran on time, I never had to wait for my appointment. I was always seen when promised. The staff is very helpful and knowledgeable, they treated me with respect and helped me to heal. I am not certain of the prices as they billed my insurance, but they were excellent about it and I never had to deal with that aspect or worry that it might not get paid for.
Lynne D. Wolf, CHT
I had to attend SW Hand Therapy after carpal tunnel surgery. They are excellent. The staff and employees are nice, and friendly. They worked with me to help me regain the mobility in my hand and wrist. They were supportive and respectful. The place was always clean. They billed my insurance with no problems. I didnt have to worry about any of it.
